A realistic trade i'd like to see

Perhaps Arnott is the next to go, and Columbus is desparately in need of a big center like Arnott. Columbus has a prospect they acquired from Washington named Theo Ruthhttp://www.hockeysfu...pects/theo_ruth
Former second round pick, could develop well.

Right now, I think that's the most likely top 5. Strome is on the rise. I don't think he'll be available past the 5th pick, unless someone is really in love with Murphy. At 7th or 8th (which is Buffalo's pick right now), you're probably looking at Murphy, Saad, Hamilton, Siemens, Armia and Khokhlachev.

Strome hasn't moved up that much, most rankings have him around the 10 spot. The 2 defensmen are almost certainly ahead of him.

He's rising farther and faster than anyone. ISS didn't even have him in their Top 30 as recently as October. Brock Otten now ranks him the second best OHL prospect for the draft. By the time June rolls along I expect him to go 4th or 5th.
